Hi everyone,
To learn more on Android and to have fun, I'm creating a Kang based on
Cyanogenmod 7.2 for the HTC Glacier.
I got the source using repo and I was able to build a "vanilla" CM7.2 without issue.
Now I want to make some modification but I'm not sure
how you guys / gals are managing the source code.
I see 3 ways to organize my work :
1- Fork each part I want to work on and change the default manifest to fetch update from my github instead of cyanogenmod.
Pros : easy, can track my change using git
Cons : to fork every part just to change a text file is beurk...
2- Create local branch with git in every project I want to change.
Pros : easy
Cons : My commit are only local. Need to merge each project with CM branch.
3- Work outside cyanogenmod source folder and applied my change before building my kang.
Rollback everything (git reset) once my build is done.
Pros : no effort to stay in sync with CM sources. Can create a project on github with all my changes.
Cons : Need to use a kind of script to apply my mod every time I want to build.
Any opinions ? How are you managing your sources ?
I'm quite new with Android development, so feel free to suggest tutorial or better working technique.
Regards.
Hello,
Bump! :-D
I will try solution 3 but I am still interested to get opinions.

FAQ
What is AOSP ROM ? What is CAF ROM ? What is HAL ? There are only two types of Android sources, AOSP ROMs uses google source, Eg. here while CAF ROMs uses codeaurora, Eg. here. Do take note that CAF also have different branches, for Eg. AOSPA CAF branch uses 89xx, it won't boot on my MSM8916 or wouldn't even build.

The only custom CAF ROMs that boots on my MSM8916 uses this

Q : How do i know which custom ROMs will build & boot on my Android device ?
A : As RD Santhosh M once told me, you'll never know until you build them & flash it to your device. Generally, from the custom ROM manifest.xml, you'll see whether it is supported. Eg. My Android device uses MSM8916 & if a particular custom ROMs doesn't have that, even though it build but it won't boot. Best is to directly ask the ROM Developer via pm, most of them are active here on XDA or post at their Google+
Q : Which custom ROM shall i build ?
A : Each custom ROM is unique in their own way. i don't plan to review each of them, you'll have to build them & flash it to your device to know its feature. From experience at performance & battery life, 50% is from the kernel & balance is from the ROM, thats why some custom ROMs feels snappier than the other. While some offers custom toolchain too. More info then refer to here
Q : i wanna learn how to build custom ROMs, where do i start ?
A : There are tons of guides here on XDA & elsewhere. Personally, i use BBQLinux, more info then refer to my thread here
Q : i have a slow PC & slow connections
A : Try out Google Cloud for free, more info then refer to nitin.chobhe thread
Misc Tips
Syncing ROM Source
Code:
mkdir -p ~/AOSP/LineageOS
cd ~/AOSP/LineageOS
repo init -u git://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b cm-14.1
repo sync -fcj68 --force-sync
Source Eg. For my kiwi. Each custom ROMs may be different, refer to their manifest for further build info
More info on syncing source here & info on fixing sync corruption here <= Misc Tips
Code:
cd ~/AOSP/LineageOS
prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 100G
export USE_CCACHE=1
export LC_ALL=C
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default
export ANDROID_JACK_VM_ARGS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -XX:+TieredCompilation -Xmx4G"
source build/envsetup.sh
brunch kiwi 2>&1 | tee ~/AOSP/LineageOS/compile.log
My BBQLinux build-script
Fixing build error
From experience after building about forty custom ROMs, most of the time is either the ROM source or device tree. On some custom ROMs, you may need to replace certain projects in order for it to work, more info on using local_manifest.xml. Eg. below
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<[COLOR="Blue"]remove[/COLOR]-project name="android_hardware_qcom_audio" />
<project path="hardware/qcom/audio-caf/msm8916" name="LineageOS/android_hardware_qcom_audio" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1-caf-8916" />
<[COLOR="blue"]remove[/COLOR]-project name="android_hardware_qcom_display" />
<project path="hardware/qcom/display-caf/msm8916" name="LineageOS/android_hardware_qcom_display" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1-caf-8916" />
<[COLOR="blue"]remove[/COLOR]-project name="android_hardware_qcom_media" />
<project path="hardware/qcom/media-caf/msm8916" name="LineageOS/android_hardware_qcom_media" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1-caf-8916" />
</manifest>
If a particular ROM is based on Lineage & Lineage developers there has added a new feature or fix some codes & this particular custom ROM developer haven't updated it yet then most of the time it will cause build error. So either wait for a few days until those changes has been merged then only build again.
Or refer to their github & gerrit to see what are the changes that might causes the build error. Then you can either revert those changes so that the ROM can be build. An Eg. here & the build error hints something about power.h then you can revert the change as below
Code:
cd ~/CustomROM/hardware/libhardware
git revert --no-edit [COLOR="Blue"]f29cb1fd95ee6e5b371d2d6a85c1aeac708b19a6[/COLOR]
View attachment 4034126
Every custom ROMs is unique so refer to their device tree for reference. Eg. Custom MSM8916 flags & dependencies on Omnirom for my kiwi
Another common build error & fixes
Code:
ninja: error: '/home/yuweng/5x/AOSP/Omni/out/target/product/kiwi/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/[COLOR="Blue"]libqmiservices[/COLOR]_intermediates/export_includes', needed by '/home/yuweng/5x/AOSP/Omni/out/target/product/kiwi/obj/EXECUTABLES/[COLOR="blue"]wcnss_service[/COLOR]_intermediates/import_includes', missing and no known rule to make it
make: *** [build/core/ninja.mk:149: ninja_wrapper] Error 1
Code:
[COLOR="Red"][B]#[/B][/COLOR] TARGET_USES_QCOM_WCNSS_QMI := true
OR
Code:
TARGET_PROVIDES_WCNSS_QMI := true
Either remark it or just delete that whole flag or add an additional new flag above will fix the build error on omnirom.
While some custom ROMs require additional flags for certain feature to work, always refer to their github device tree for reference. For Eg. on my kiwi, on DU, sliding the BT switch won't work, it will switch on but it won't detect nearby bluetooth devices & in a short while, it will auto switch off. All needed was an additional flag
Code:
BLUETOOTH_HCI_USE_MCT := true
Source
If you are still not able to solve those build errors or a certain function doesn't work on your device then try asking for help at their google+. Some provide realtime on IRC Freenode too. Eg. TWRP & omnirom, always check out the timezone first. Eg. You should be able to catch hold of Dees_Troy TWRP Lead Developer( very nice & approachable developer ) at 9am to 5pm & there won't be anyone around at 3am in the morning obviously !
Ethics
Gives Credit Where Credit is Due
Over the years, i've seen alot of fights & arguments here on XDA & elsewhere regarding taking the work of others. Most developers already shared/ public their work to the world, all you have to do is to show your gratitude by mentioning their name in your work when you share them, thats all they want, to be acknowledged & recognized for their work ! When you don't meaning you are stealing from them, end users wouldn't have known & they will think that you do all the work all by yourself. Gives Credit Where Credit is Due
Detail info then refer to here & here
Official Support
Most ROM Developers doesn't support devices that they don't own. If you do want to maintain a particular ROM for your device then talk to them & see how to work things out !
Example of a Basic requirement of a Device Maintainer
Code:
As a Maintainer you are expected to:
1. Be able to build for your device and provide users with regular builds.
a. You must own the device you wish to maintain. Blind builds and ports are NOT allowed!
b. Exceptions may be made (family/friend's devices with direct access and variants of devices etc) and are to be requested BEFORE submitting your patchset to Gerrit!
c. A Co-Maintainer may be elected for your device by you if wanted. He/she must follow the same rules as you and submit their own commit to Gerrit.
d. Maintainers will have merge permissions to their device and kernel specific repositories and are expected to keep their device in working order. Whether this done by; doing basic upkeep with upstream changes for fixes and updates, starting for an upstream base and doing original work (pushing upstream when you can), or a mixture of both. The main concern is following proper procedure and keeping your device(s) functioning. Additionally, common and shared repositories will be worked on together by the Maintainers; they will still be controlled and merged by the PAC Team. In this respect, teamwork among Maintainers with common devices will not only be encouraged, in some cases, it may be necessary.
2. Threads are to be compared to our templates regularly for updated topic and content changes.
a. Templates are to be used exactly as they are with NO alterations aside the foreseen places like Title, Installation, Updating, Not working, Other info, and additional credits below the current list if any, unless permitted otherwise.
b. Custom additions (custom builds, kernels, patches, software packages etc) are tolerated and may be distributed from the PAC-ROM thread's Downloads section of the first post.
c. Information about any custom additions is to be posted in the 2nd post of both threads.
d. Custom additions are your responsibility, and are not supported by the PAC-ROM Dev Team.
e. The PAC-ROM Dev Team may change, remove, disable, or tell you to delete ANY custom additions or infringing content for any reason, at any time, in our sole discretion.
f. If unsure, ask the reviewer you contacted.
3. Maintainers MUST create an account on our [JIRA] (http://jira.pac-rom.com/). Users will be able to submit issues and find contact information on the Maintainer for their device such as PAC/XDA Threads. Maintainers will be required to upkeep their JIRA support.
4. To maintain proper support and device usability across the PAC-ROM community, if a device is: abandoned, unsupported, unkempt, or devices where the Maintainer has; sold, broken, lost, no longer has and will not be replacing [within the grace period of 4 weeks], or no longer cares to maintain the device for PAC, then the device will be removed. Remember, if the device is removed and it gets further support, from someone else, then it can be resubmitted later as new.
a. Be fair to the users, if you can not maintain the device anymore for whatever reason, please try to find a follow up maintainer, have them submit their take over changes to Gerrit, and have your threads transferred if possible. If this is not possible, please remove the device and submit your cleanup to Gerrit.
5. Prereleases
* Only Maintainers may publish Alpha/Prerelease builds.
* Alpha/Prerelease build version tag should be set to UNOFFICIAL
* Users/Unofficial device Maintainers may NOT release/post our Prerelease builds.
* Permission for Maintainers may be revoked anytime for a Maintainer or global for all Maintainers.
* Alpha/Prerelease builds are to be uploaded to BB/codename/Unofficial.
* Alpha/Prerelease builds are NOT supported by PAC Dev Team or Maintainers.
* Maintainers are to check their XDA device category for threads posting Prereleases/Unofficial builds and have them removed/closed.
* Maintainers can use this opportunity to test and bring up their devices, users can play with cutting edge test builds and return feedback for the Maintainer at their own risk.
* Community/Forum posts about ETA's, Prerelease device compatibility, broken or missing features, or any other acquisition of Prerelease information and support will be deleted/directed toward the Maintainer.
6. As a Maintainer, you will be able to:
* Get official, clean built, and automated nightly/weekly builds from Jenkins.
* Use our file hosting for builds.
* Use our OTA for pushing your own builds.
* Join in on our discussions, get support from the Dev Team and other Maintainers.
* There is no cake, it's a lie!
* Devices that get less than 35 downloads a week are considered low activity and will be moved to weekly.xml.

Build Server
Recently a good friend of mine shoxxy from Germany is so kind for letting me try out his build server... :good:
View attachment 4071930
repo sync completed in about 35 minutes only instead of 8 to 10 hours on my home 10MB broadband !
View attachment 4071931
speedtest 200MB/s while my home typically only 8 to 9MB/s !
How this works is that you are actually still using your PC to connect to the build server via terminal ssh, Eg. ssh [email protected] & you'll be prompt for password. shoxxy has already setup the OS so i only need to sync the source & start building ! There is absolutely no GUI only command line so you need to be familiar with nano to edit your device tree.
View attachment 4071955
Copy/ paste from your PC to build server terminal works. Some of the common nano shortcut key is ctrl + k = cut & ctrl + u = paste or you can also use your mouse to highlight that particular line then ctrl + k to cut it & copy whatever you need to replace from your PC to the terminal & right-click mouse to paste it. More info on nano keyboard commands
View attachment 4071985
Build completed successfully. You can also use gdrive to upload your build to google drive... :good:
View attachment 4071988
Use nano to check for build error. nano shortcut key to end of file is Ctrl + w + v
View attachment 4071992
Very important to use screen before you start building or your build will stop when connection is lost !

Always wanted something like this . Glad to see you again @yuweng.
How are you my friend, indeed it has been quite awhile since our last chat... :highfive: Back in our early MTK days, absolute nothing can build from source, we have to resort to ROM porting to get the so called custom ROM on our device... Now i can see M.A.D Team are making some progress but not all MTK devices are supported. Mid of last year, i have made the decision to move to Qualcomm SoC, we have close to 50 custom ROMs build from source, Thanks to our device tree bring-up team, crpalmer & BadDaemon, we have 3 generations of Android on it, cm-12.1 (LP), cm-13.1 (MM), cm-14.1 (N) & now we have Official Support too... And Yes, with the exact same device tree, i alone was able to built about 40 of them...
The first custom ROMs database started back in 2013, very detail list but no longer updated, i don't plan to go so deep into it, just links to their source & Google+, you'll have to sync the source, build them, flash them to your device to know what those custom ROMs has to offer, all you need is your device tree, kernel source & vendor tree & last but not least, of course, a MSM SoC not MTK... :laugh:

Hehe yeah, the good old MTK days. I still have the same device that you helped me with back in the day and I've done quite some work on my own too, built all the available recoveries, custom kernels and tried two ROMs (CM11 and CM12.1). They don't boot (libs issue) but haha it was a nice experience. I know you switched from the MTK scene for a while now and are working with the Honor device :silly:. M.A.D team is doing something great because a lot of other developers are coming out and getting other devices supported too!!. Sadly it's only the newer generation chips (MT67XX) while I still have the old MT65XX :laugh:. If I ever get a Qualcomm device, I'll be sure to continue following this thread .

I agree I am a noob. Started learning stuff very recently. The device which i own is not an easy device for ROM building but am trying. Saw this wonderful post and thought would get help. But thats ok mate you can talk all about your golden days here[OFF-TOPIC] and I will take help from somebody else as xda is quite big.
Peace.
@OP:-Wonderful thread thank you.

I never said anything about not offering help but alright xD.
You do have a point about the OT part tho, a question like that isn't quite as OT as my post.
Theoretically all, as all of them are actually a fork of Android however, having said that, RD codeworkx has ceased development on it since 5 years ago !

Hello,
I recently compiled CyanogenMod 14.1 for my Android device using the official sources and want to compile Omni 7.1 for the same device and use the device tree and kernel from the official CM sources because there's no device tree for Omni. Is there a way to "convert" the CM device tree to work with the Omni sources? My exact problem is the compiler doesn't know my device so I can't run something like "brunch [device]" or "make [device]", although I already downloaded all device-specific repositories to the same subdirectory as I'd do it on CM.
Thanks in advance,
Oebbler

You have to go to your android_device_manufacturer_yourphonecodename repo and rename cm.mk to omni_codename.mk, open it and change cm_codename to omni_codename.
You have also to rename cm.dependencies to omni.dependencies, but the repos included in that file may not be in omnirom source, so you would need to manually sync those repos in your android sorce tree.
You might have to make other minor changes, take a look at the rest of code in that repo.
For further info: https://docs.omnirom.org/Porting_Omni_To_Your_Device
Thank you, but I think I won't succeed in building Omni for my device because I always get strange errors.
Probs will get annoyed, cmsdk, cmhw, and cm encryption are significantly annoying. Also they moved their build dir, generally include useless common subtrees, and named dtbtool with CM suffix. Their build tree might be the most significant hindrance to unified building on Android, not only for the many unnecessary additions and dependencies they have for devices, but also they generally lack a community presence to answer or respond to users, so a lot of us get stuck with cleaning up their mess.
Notice how TWRP has a community presence here and are helpful. I'm not hating on cm, they have been doing this longer than most of us, but for ease id recommend using your rom choices tree.
Also the immensely significant annoyance of having to track devicesettings and the unwillingnes to nuke cmactions, combine it with cmsdk, or at least remove it's dependency in most trees is almost certainly going to cause you errors.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8.1 (Oreo), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
*
*/
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Gerrit Code Review. Your changelog is whatever was merged into gerrit.
Important information:
This thread is for LineageOS 15.1 builds for OnePlus 3/3T. The following will not be supported here:
Custom kernels
Mods
Xposed
We don't support Xposed and any logcat which includes a Xposed module will be ignored. You're kindly invited to not report bugs if you:
Flashed a custom kernel
Installed or did mods from untrusted sources
Modified system files
Tips:
SELinux works in permissive enforcing mode
You need at least OxygenOS 5.0 firmware, otherwise you'll get error 7 when installing the zip. Latest firmware is recommended.
Installation:
First time flashing LineageOS 15.1 on your device, or coming from another ROM?
Download the zip(s)
Install a compatible Recovery (Latest official TWRP is highly recommended: https://twrp.me/oneplus/oneplusthree.html)
Perform a nandroid backup of your current ROM (Optional)
Wipe data/factory reset
Flash LineageOS
Optional: Install the Google Apps addon package
Reboot

Frequently Asked Questions
When you're about to ask a question, read the FAQs below, otherwise it'll be ignored.
Rule: NEVER ask for ETA
Q: Can we port treble to our device?
A: NO, unless OnePlus supports treble in official OxygenOS. Treble is trouble, treble is fake news. From my point of view treble brings zero benefit to the device. You already have countless custom ROMs, treble won't bring more fancy ROMs to the device, it just brings endless trouble to device maintainers. The most important point is, some of our proprietary vendor blobs aren't fully decoupled from /system, so fake Treble won't achieve the same effect as Google announced, especially when upgrading to new Android versions via GSIs.
Q: It VoLTE working on our device?
A: I don't know. My carrier doesn't support VoLTE/VoWLAN, but I've added necessary IMS stack to the ROM, and there're actually some users reported working VoLTE. If it doesn't work for you, DON'T issue me, I'm unable to fix it. Notice: If you strongly believe your carrier does support VoLTE/VoWLAN but the toggle doesn't even show up in settings, tell me your carrier's MCC/MNC number (check http://www.mcc-mnc.com/)
Q: Please add support for sRGB/DCI-P3 as cm-14.1
A: Our kernel does support them, you can enable it via sysfs toggle: /sys/class/graphics/fb0/srgb and /sys/class/graphics/fb0/dci_p3, maybe some apps could help you do this easier. The frontend is WIP(in fact it's already under reviewing, will be merged soonDone)
Q: Please add xyz features or fix UI/UX related bugs/regressions
A: All feature requests and UI/UX related stuff should go to LineageOS JIRA: https://jira.lineageos.org, I only take care of hardware-specific stuff.
Q: Can you make my device bypass SafetyNet?
A: https://www.lineageos.org/Safetynet/
So... its start... official?
Yes!!! :victory: Going to try it out once I'm done with work
Nice work! Gonna install it asap and report any issues.
Device OP3T, not rooted, encrypted.
I list here whatever I am able to find:
Charging doesn't make a sound nor vibrate, no matter what settings.
Option to switch hw keys light on/off is missing (i know not real issue, but many prefer them off)
Display modes missing sRGB, DCI-P3
Thank you! Will install and give feedback after few hours.
EDIT:So far so good. Very good for an alpha. But we should wait for official to daily use i think.
Edit again: Official rollout has been started. Except some kernel issues(fixable with custom kernel), great rom. Okay for daily use, no crashes or random reboots. Thanks anyone who put work on it.

I'm wondering if this is the f2fs loopback problem.
Is your data partition f2fs or ext4?
